How much does a charter bus rental cost in Boca Raton?

How far in advance should I book my bus?
The sooner, the better. The more time we have, the better able we’ll be to pair you with a bus and driver that best fit your travel needs. Ideally, book 6 to 9 months in advance for trips taking place during the busiest travel months—April, May, and June. Otherwise, at least 3 months in advance is ideal.
Can I change my trip itinerary after I book?
Yes, but we may need to charge an extra fee. To make any adjustments, call us at 561-493-2843. We can’t guarantee that we’ll be able to make every requested itinerary change, but our team will always do our best.
What kind of amenities can I expect on board?
Amenities will vary based on the size and model of charter bus you rent, but in general all charter buses come equipped with air conditioning to beat the Florida heat, reclining seats for maximum comfort, and plenty of overhead storage bins to keep personal belongings stored away and out of the aisleway. Full-size charter buses also include an onboard restroom. We also offer additional amenities like WiFi and power outlets, so you can keep devices charged and stay connected during your trip.
Do you have ADA-accessible buses available?
We are proud to offer ADA-accessible charter bus rentals! If you need features like wider aisleways, wheelchair lifts, or accessible restrooms, our 24/7 team is happy to assist you with your needs. Just be sure to give us at least 48 hours advance notice, so we have time to find an appropriate bus to meet your needs.
Can we eat and drink on board the bus?
It depends. Food and drinks are permitted on some charter bus rentals. Please make sure your group is throwing away any trash and wiping up any spills before arriving at your destination, so you can avoid cleaning fees at the end of your trip. For an added convenience and comfort, some full-size charter bus rentals include a restroom on board.
Is alcohol allowed on board a bus rental?
Some buses, yes. Keep in mind that all passengers consuming alcohol must be 21+ with a valid ID, and hard liquor is not allowed on charter buses. It’s best to notify your reservation specialist if your group plans to consume alcohol, so we can ensure your group has the correct bus.
Can I drive my charter bus rental?
Even if you have a CDL license, you cannot drive your charter bus. All bus rentals with Boca Raton Charter Bus Company include the services of a driver.
How often will our bus driver take breaks?
Drivers can only operate a bus for 10 consecutive hours. At that point, they’re legally required to take an 8-hour break. If your trip involves any overnight travel, you will need to book a private hotel room for your driver. For shorter trips, you can discuss pit stops and driving breaks with your driver on the road.
Do I need to provide food and lodging for the driver?
While we don’t require you to pay for your driver’s food and drink—they’ll be handling their own meals and snacks—you’re more than welcome to share snacks, drinks, or water with them! If you are renting your Boca Raton charter bus for an overnight trip or multi-day trip, you’ll need to book a separate hotel room for your driver each night. Drivers are required by law to take 8 hours rest for every 10 hours of driving they do.
Should I tip my charter bus driver?
We highly recommend that you tip your bus driver to show your appreciation for their services. It’s good practice to tip them at least 5-20% of the total cost of your trip. Tips should be paid in cash directly to the driver.
